Great photos of a spectacularly beautiful state. Love the moon in the arch.
Originally posted by artifax1 I am thinking about getting the Canon G9, anyone have an opinion?
We have the
el cheapo Powershot A720 IS in the lab at work for taking technical shots etc, and I'm continually surprised at what good JPEGs it takes for $200, the Digic III processor does a great job and the sensor and lens are obviously pretty good for the price. If the G9 is that much better again it could be well worth checking out as a high-end P&S.
I have a Canon S80 for the more strenuous hikes I do where the K10D is consigned to the "yikes, no way" basket because of weight and bulk. My little Canon doesn't take photos anything like my K10D, but if it's a matter of not taking a camera at all and missing a good shot, or carrying a small P&S, then splash some cash on a G9 or similar and I doubt you'll be sorry -- but discipline yourself to carry it always! (except when using your K20D)
